There are some things I need almost every time I cook and came up with 2 ways to keep them closer at hand.
I mentioned before that I store my root veggies and some fruits in one of my less used rooms in the house where it's cooler than the more used areas. I always need an onion or garlic, a spud or a carrot or 3. Onions, lemons and other things come packed in the plastic mesh sacks. Now I keep a couple onions and a head of garlic in one sack, 2 or 3 spuds and a few carrots in another. I heard or read somewhere we shouldn't store onions and taters together so I hang the 2 sacks from cabinet doors on opposite sides of the stove (not right next to the stove). They're right there handy and not cold like being stored in the fridge nor mushy from getting over warm w/ no air around them.
My other handy idea is for my "new" spice & herb rack. I had a little wire basket made to hang for mail, maybe a couple small plants or some cute little crap, I don't really know what exactly it was designed, made and marketed for. Anyway I nailed this little jewel to the kitchen wall to hold the spices and herbs I most often use right there where I can easily see, find and grab them.
